Yeah, all CDs are 50% off. That's what contributed to the shopping mania for me. The justification was: 'Wow, I'm really saving $250 by spending $250... yeah, that's it. I think I'll buy those other 3 Scott Walker solo CDs I've been wanting for years.' One piece of advice: go there with a list of what you want. It's a little discouraging looking through the bins because they've been massively picked over at this point.

Christ on a crutch! How far is that?

No wait, let me guess! About 20 miles? Or the equivalent in kilometers.

Yeah, about twenty miles. And I tipped, oh sticklers of the tipping.

The thing I totally forgot was that my mate Stuart lives in Darlington so I could have just kipped there for the night. I guess I was in caveman-needs-to-get-back-to-cave mode. Ug.

Si. Tip is good. I give many tip moneys to Stevino,
so he can buy gifts for bambinos on the Day of Christmas. Even if he no sing The Silver Bells.

Ty: Keep us posted -- I've been thinking about your post a lot. I know it's got to be really tough for you right now. Hope things work out okay.

I have an exam for analog circuit design in two hours and I'm neither studying nor planning to study despite the fact that I may fail this class. I'm pretty apathetic about it, which is weird because it's a relatively interesting class. I recently realized that I should have taken the computer engineering major rather than the electrical. Damn it. Too late to switch now.

In this morning's exam I made up a bunch of stuff. I couldn't remember the continuity equation so I made my own. The professor is not likely to approve of this.

I think i more or less laid out the scaffolding for the next 15 years of my life.

over morning coffee, with a spreadsheet.

holy shit.

wow. er, why? or, how?

I work for the fundraising department at a mid-size university. I surface alumni, friends of the school, parents of past and present students, etc who have a lot of money and I send our development officers to solicit them.

Today I found a guy whose son is a current student. The father is an executive at a publicly traded company. He makes a lot of money.

I was just about to send someone to talk to him when I discovered his son was arrested a few weeks ago for using myspace to arrange sex with 14 and 15 year old boys.

The students' parents tipped off police.
